Stormy. Bali (2017) Original Oil Painting by Simon Kozhin

The artist painted this sketch from nature from the balcony of his Bali Beach hotel room in 2017, en plein air, in the Alla Prima style. This work captures the stormy coastal landscape of the island of Crete in the village of Bali, Greece, where the muted blue shades of the ocean smoothly merge with the clear sky. The composition is a rocky cliff on the right in an umbrella on an elevation, and the subtle details of the stones add texture and depth. The artist masterfully juxtaposes the dynamic waves of the ocean to calm, distant mountains stretching into the horizon, creating a sense of spaciousness. The use of light and shadow enhances the three-dimensional effect, drawing the viewer into the scene. The carefully selected color palette of blue and green shades evokes a sense of calm and serenity. The carefully designed frame complements the elegance of the painting, highlighting the scenic beauty of nature captured in this breathtaking seascape.
